Mylohyoid motor evoked potentials can effectively predict persistent dysphagia 3  months poststroke

Conclusions and InferencesMH‐MEP was well‐correlated with dysphagia severity assessed by VFSS. The rMT ratio and amplitude ratio of MH‐MEP can effectively predict persistent dysphagia 3 months poststroke. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between MH‐MEP and swallowing function and determine the value of MH‐MEP for predicting aspiration three months post‐stroke. MH‐MEP was well correlated with dysphagia severity assessed by VFSS. The MH‐MEP can effectively predict persistent dysphagia 3 months post‐stroke.
